Four Star Hotels in Gulf Coast

"This is my honest review: The exterior of the hotel and lobby are original, with beautiful architecture, and the location is very central. However, the rooms and hallways were outdated and felt unclean—there was black mould in the grout on the bathroom tiles, and the carpets clearly needed a professional cleaning. I understand this may be part of the hotel’s “aesthetic,” but I don’t think there’s any excuse for the room being dirty. Much of the furniture in the room also felt like it needed updating. The carousel bar was packed every time we went, so we eventually gave up trying to get in (which was one of the main reasons I chose the hotel). It’s also very close to Bourbon St, so walking back after dark didn’t feel like the safest experience. Overall, nothing about the hotel really stood out to us—it was simply a place to sleep."

"7 minutes walk to pier and shops, everything was really great , staff very kind and helpful rooms clean and nice. Great beach and views."

"HORROR SHOW HOTEL DONT STAY! front desk girl (name was a wine name LIKE KIAYANTI or similar) didnt give us the room type or view we paid for/downgraded us. Upon entering room noticing the view & ELEVATOR shaft LOUDNESS i immediately called front desk got her was told to come down for CORRECT room. got to desk she said that I physically entered room she couldn’t switch room because me entering meant I occupied it & they would need to re-clean it. Said I had to stay in THE WRONG room for at least 1 night. I was in the room for less than 2 minutes nothing disturbed. SO I asked for a manager; he told me he they were sold out WHEN I MADE a huge fuss loud where others in line could hear me the correct ROOM appeared & they moved me. Apologized SAID her giving me a lesser room than what I paid for was an error. Hmmmm The floor we got moved to 9th had a slice of Chewed PIZZA on floor in hallway for 3 days & TINY pool had more dirt & paint chips in it than water. BIGGEST ERROR we came back to ROOM from a day of sightseeing & housekeeping left our room door ajar the entire day after cleaning it. NOT just unlocked BUT AJAR - OPEN to the public. I went down to front desk the assistant manager CLAUDIA GONZALEZ was the rudest most unprofessional/unsincere hospitality worker I have ever spoken to. no sense of urgency for our belongings no sense of sorrow for the situation no concern if item were missing. security did a report. BUT Have not heard from HOTEL since regarding situation."

"I’ve stayed at this property 3–4 times now, and it has truly become my go-to escape from the daily hustle. The overall vibe is very relaxed, and the beach is excellent—clean, accessible, and perfect for unwinding. One standout experience this trip was the valet/parking staff. Without me even asking, they charged my Tesla overnight. I didn’t realize it until the next morning, but it ended up saving me a tremendous amount of time since I was running late heading back to work in Sanford. That level of attention and initiative really stood out. The only downside is the pool area—it always seems to be packed, and I’ve never been able to find available chairs despite multiple stays. Also, the in-room coffee could be improved, but having a Starbucks downstairs definitely makes up for it. Overall, this hotel is amazing. Great atmosphere, great location, and thoughtful service. I’ll definitely be back again."

"This was a beautiful place to stay. The only issue I ran into was it looked as F the room had not been cleaned properly before I checked in, but they immediately took care of it and re-cleaned the whole entire room"

"The property was so nice. The pool area is really nice. It’s in a great location for walking to town. It’s also a great location to walk to restaurants. The rooms were large. I felt like it was larger than some Marriott rooms."

"Great newly renovated hotel staff & amenities are amazing."
